“I found the training extremely beneficial. I felt that it was more an exercise in changing hearts and minds, than a standard training. We were encouraged to empathise and to understand the frameworks within which members of the LGBTQIA+ community have to function. The toll that this takes and the adversity faced were illustrated in a factual and sensitive manner. I think that this was evident in the considered way that delegates chose to offer aspects of their own lived experience. We were encouraged to look outwards as well as inwards and it felt really empowering to be given the opportunity to develop a skill set that could really make things better. Not just for the community we work within but also for one another as colleagues and friends. My hope is that this training experience will be used as the foundation to build something within our own organisation that empowers staff and facilitates meaningful change.”

“The training was perfect – you made it feel like a safe and kind space where we could ask curious questions, learn and grow together. I came out feeling more confident in my knowledge and much better able to be a good ally for the LGBTQ+ community. I really enjoyed it and the way you teach and present was brilliant – I am a visual learner so your analogies, explanations and patience was much appreciated. Thank you again – I hope you are able to come back and visit us in the future”
Education
“Jamie delivered a brilliantly engaging session to our LGBTQ+ network on gender identity and trans awareness. It was pitched at an excellent level, ensuring all the basics were covered but also included some more advanced things for those in the room who already had some sound knowledge. Jamie gave our network a huge amount of ideas on how to make our workplace more inclusive for our colleagues and how to deliver a more inclusive service. Despite it being online, Jamie ensured the session was interactive and enjoyable. I would highly recommend booking Jamie!”
